Upgrading to Office 2007

L

Lance

I am running Office 2003 Professional, fully licensed. Will I be able to buy
an upgrade to Office 2007, or will I need to purchase a full version?

1. Considering the fact that Office 2006 (commonly known as Office 12)
hasn't even been released yet and probably won't be for at least another 6
months, I really doubt they would be planning on an "Office 2007".

2. Chances are good that owning Office 2003 will be a qualifying product for
Office 2006 but I can honestly say that I haven't heard anything either way.

I had to laugh when I read they are calling Office 12 Office 2007. I
suspect this is in case they don't meet the end of 2006 deadline the
name will still be appropriate. <g>

Well, after all, they are following a long standing practice, since Office
97 was released in late 1996.

Yeah, you're right. Office 2000 and Office XP were also released the
previous year although Office 2003 was released in late 2003.

I still think Office 2007 won't make the projected release date...

From what I have seen, you are probably right. But that is enough said in a
non-NDA group.
